Sat, 01 Apr 2017 16:20:07 +0000http://autismspectrum.wordpress.com/?p=278#comment-1742I’m an autistic young woman in the 7th grade. I have experienced exceedingly stupefied and unnecessary discrimination since elementary school. It is so frustrating when they don’t let me attend lectures because I’m not “smart enough.” I had to fight to be in the English class that I’m in, and I’m one of the best students there now. I remember in 2nd grade, a teacher put bruises on my arms and she didn’t get penalized in any way because I was “provoking” her with an autistic tendency of mine (scratching the door).
So if you think that autistic children are messed up in any way, I believe you have your head shoved way too far up your ass at this point.

Sat, 11 Mar 2017 01:00:46 +0000http://autismspectrum.wordpress.com/?p=278#comment-1727Thank you so much! This is just what I needed to read as my verbal Autistic DD has been screaming at me for every question and answer that she does not like….Stupid, Fat, Ugly, with shoves and her sister as well. It’s very difficult to explain to her sister who is just a year older what is going on and to not take it to heart…and to not copy her! Thankfully she doesn’t. Holds it in all day at school but takes it out on everyone at home. All day in school she has learned to act like she knows what is going on when she really doesn’t. After calling everyone names at home she innocently asks to go see the next door neighbor as sweet as pie. When I say no, not after what happened, she is confused and wondering what she did wrong even though I reprimand her at every word. Her memory erases in a split second and you are still trying to shake it off! I feel your pain!

He screams he hates us he throws things he has broken many things our biggest problem is school the teacher constantly had him in the quiet room because he gets frustrated so easy. I wish I knew of a better way to keep his frustration levels down because this teacher certainly don’t have any clue.
